regardless of this effort. Everyone expects Texas to at least be in play for turning purple by 2020. If the Latino vote remains at a 70/30 split, the demographics are undeniable.

Than everyone is on crack. It simply won't happen. It's actually rather piss ignorant and insulting to latinos to even entertain this type of thinking. What you will have in 2020 is a SLIGHTLY less red Texas, nothing even close to purple. You realize that 2020 is only 7 years from now right? The GOP swept Texas last year without putting ANY effort out there. I mean literally almost NO effort at all. To TRULY make Texas purple would require massive demo shifts PLUS a massive amount of money PLUS the Texas GOP would have to sit by and let it happen without doing anything... do you honestly think that is going to happen? I live here, I know for a fact it won't anytime soon, certainly not by 2020.

Could this be where the money for access to the WH is going? Obama has not stopped being an Alinsky Community Organizer instead of administering the nation.

Again.. HAHAHAHAHA... "tens of millions of dollars" wouldn't even turn one decent sized city in Texas blue much less the whole state. You'd think these jerkoffs could spend all that money on effort on something that actually helps people.

I was just stating the ongoing political dogma being passed around. I have no clue about Texas politics. Just found it interesting that major players in the Dem crowd are going to put time and money into turning it blue.

To be clear, I'm not saying YOU believe this or are thinking one way or another I am saying that the people trying this are living in make believe land. Texas certainly could come into play SOMEDAY, just like California could come into play for the GOP... someday. Neither is even a remote possibility in the near term.

Is it less insulting to think that Latinos are a bunch of pathetic moochers who will lick any boot that gives them a free meal?

That's exactly the type of thinking I am talking about. BOTH parties seem to think this and assume that Latinos will continue to vote Dem because of it. They vote Dem in Texas because the GOP mostly ignores them because they don't need them... right now.

They need to educate them in way that will benefit them. That freedom and free-markets is their best chance for a better life. Use the country they came from as a comparison, since it's socialist. Ask them are they better off there under that or here with the opportunities remaining intact. Ron Paul is out there going to campuses to educate. That's what it's going to take.

The early indications are not good. Not good at all. They are overwhelmingly pro-welfare, anti-gun, anti-American exeptionalism and pro-amnesty. If the GOP morphs far enough to actually "out Democrat" the Democrats, then they'll lose their whole base.

Why would The People's Democrat Socialist Party want to waste any effort or resources in turning Texas blue? As long as you continue to have poll workers voting six times in Ohio, PA and Virginia, you will never need Texas.

That is exactly what you do and nothing more. A little chirping mouthpiece.

Not going to happen. This state is firmly in the hands of far right wing knuckle draggers as well as religious facists. It's not a coincidence that Texas is at or near the bottom in education every year.

So there is a correlation between a state's political leanings and it's educational performance- by whatever measure you chose? Really? Has nothing to do with income per capita, impact of immigration (illegal or other wise), climate, and many other factors other than political color? Might ought to look before you leap...

Obama won the HS dropout vote big, so obviously the less educated a society is the more likely it will be to support Democrats.
